Aside from the team’s record, a few moments stood out to the coach and the players, such as the time spent between matches.
“The best moments were some of our overnight trips and the team bonding at that time,” Johnson said.
Reuben Thill, an LHS wrestler who placed at state competitions said his favorite part of the season was winning Rollie Lane, a tournament in Nampa.

Johnson also commented on COVID-19 restrictions and how they affected this season.
“The major effects of COVID-19 restrictions were on day-to-day transitions, to and from practice,” Johnson said. “We were also limited on the number of tournaments that were available.”

State competitions were shortened to one day and subject to the same restrictions as the rest of the season.
